Anyone hired since 2008 shouldn't expect to be able to hold a captain slot in Denver for a very long time. We are super top heavy here. There are about 280 crews in Denver while only 90 or so each in Chicago and Orlando. With the plan I believe to grow them both to 150 by the end of the year. I'm going to guess we are mirroring Spirit with new pilot domicils. More, but smaller bases. Around 150 crews. I think that's about what they have. Spirit guys can correct me if I'm wrong.
Denver flying might grow a little bit, maybe 10-15% but not enough to create new captain vacancies. Last April we had close to 330 crews in Denver. We are growing a lot but it's all in the bases other then Denver and there are very few retirements coming up. I'd guess we have fewer then 15 guys in Denver who are over 60.
